You're kind of stuck, aren't you. At 13, you're dependent on parents for transportation, so that lets out a lot of ideas. It's especially hard to meet people in your age group while school's out of session, and I recall that at that age, a single year difference can make a lot of difference.

I would suggest you persue your own interests, whatever they are, and kind of keep an eye out for opportunities. Otherwise, I don't have any ideas, but maybe I can bump up the question and see who jumps in.

We have several mothers here with kids your age, and they've hit just about everything that could come along.

Don't stress about it. The more you feel down, the harder it will be to adapt. Ask your parents to take out on trips to get to explore the area. While in school, you should join clubs or sports and meet girls. That way you can hang out with them later on and not feel lonely. Good luck!

Don't get frustrated, life is very beautiful so enjoy it you will find happiness somewhere.

When school starts things will get better. In the meantime, ask that kid where all the kids hang out. Is there a pool or exercise center in your neighborhood? Shopping center? How about youth groups? Ask your mom to take you to the local municipality office. They usually can direct you to parks and recreation programs. Call your new school and ask about late summer programs. Do you go to church? Perhaps you can find a few to visit and see what their youth programs are like. Take a walk around and see if there are any girls around your neighborhood.

Good luck. I admire you for looking for ways to make your life better. You sound like you want people around you - that's good.
